I have changed the car insurances around today in anticipation of collecting the new CRV tonight after work.
It quiet simple really, the wife's Discovery is being used as deposit and she is getting my old Focus, so my insurance needs changing from the Focus to the CRV and her insurance needs changing to the Focus.
Have we all got that? right easy enough only the insurance company want £ 182.39 for my change of vehicle on my policy that's £152.39 to the insurance and £30 admin. Now I have already payed £353.03 for a year starting in November last year so for basically half a year there is an additional charge of £182.39 bringing the total charge to £534.73. I can get a full year with the same insurance company for £488!!!
If I cancel the policy I would get £74 back so add that to the £182.39 I have to pay and you get £256.39. The cheapest quote for a full year from now is £275............if I did this in total I would have paid £609.42 for insurance which would have lasted me 18 months!
Then to top it all they reneged on what they said about the change of vehicle for the other half which they quoted on Saturday as no charge and today revised it to £175, this is based on her owning and registering the vehicle instead of me, but if I still own and register it and she insures it then they will only charge me £30 admin fee to alter the policy?
? where does her being registered keeper affect a policy.
I'm afraid I lost me temper in the end, I paid the £212.39 and vowed never to use GROVE AND DEAN insurance ever again.
The dirty rotten thieving bastards........................
